Where it comes from

Beaujolais, France

Beaujolais — a region in eastern France, just south of Burgundy, devoted almost entirely to juicy, food-friendly red wine.

Silvaner

Silvaner is a white grape that arose as a natural crossing with roots in Austria, though it became most closely associated with German winemaking, where it is valued for its gentle, food-friendly character.

Riesling

Riesling is a white grape from Germany's Rhine region, widely regarded as one of the noblest white varieties for its purity, transparency and ability to express place with startling precision.

Gewürztraminer

Gewürztraminer is a pink-skinned white grape whose roots trace to the village of Tramin in Italy's Alto Adige, a mutation of the older Traminer family.
